(The theory with the printed strip, is that is under the moving tie bar, so you ballast all the white bits safely)
-
They are small card 'inserts' that come with the Cobalt Motors. After you drill the hole for the motor armature to poke through, you are left with a big, 6mm hole - not good for ballasting! You slip the card insert under the point, and you get a neat little slot for the motor arm, and can then ballast safely without dropping ballast into the motor or under the board. They'll need a good whack of an airbrush too - you'd think they could have printed them with ballast (or even printed them grey )
-
Last but not least, the first little batch of hardstanding.....
-
Oh, and here are Dave (modelbaseboards) stunners on the right hand side, ready for the right hand loop and what will be a Whitehead inspired preservation depot:
-
The photos don't do them justice - they are stunning - all individually numbered, beautifully detailed and have a lovely weight to them! Next, I played with a new Kibri kit-built Plasser
-
As you can see in the last photo, I also fitted two more point motors under the board for the double slip. Next, I tested the freight sidings for length - with a rake of 12 of Hidden Agenda's 46' Container Flats!
-
Some Catch-Ups - finally got an hour or two upstairs today!! First off, RedRich sent me some Hurst Models orange piping/trunking - they look fantastic!
-
Lovely shots I'll start new threads with better photos of DSER 15, Merlin, Dunlice Castle and their sisters
-
I'd certainly be interested - what have you in mind?
-
She is. A few customised bits, new tender sides, some of Weshty's decals iirc and a lick of paint. Would def be in the market for a new version in current flying snail
-
Work of art Not sure if you said it before, but how did you do the hardstanding - looks very effective!
-
The cabinet needs a dusting too
-
I've 461 in her Origlnal DSER 15 guise (tho she stays in the cabinet ) Will try dig up what notes I have about her construction

Have't been in the attic in nearly two weeks Anthony - but am lovingly fondling those wagons :) Will get up some shots hopefully tomorrow of them trying out the freight yard
-
Looking Great! Roryon! I'll echo Anthony in thanking you for taking the time to post!! Check out the Bachmann Irish Rail 2700 railcars - you;ll still find them in the Irish model shops - it would look good stopping at that little terminus!!
-
Try one at a time? Maybe give it a minute to process ?
-
Will have a play and see

Yep. Large file dimensions and max of 2mb in size.
